When in doubt, ask your vet. As a rule of thumb, you should just be able to feel your dogs ribs when you hold her around the ribcage, but they should not protrude or be visible when looking at her.

It is not possible to simply state an ideal weight as there is a range for each breed, and some individuals are small or large for their breed. A vet could give you an idea of whether yours are a good weight as well as advice on a good feeding plan. Here is one site with pictures of dogs at under-, average, and over-weight.
